    Today's card battles are coming down to:

    • UK: Matthew Dennant, Danny Lauby, Dom Taylor, and either James Hurrell or Robert Grundy
    • EU: Jules van Dongen, Benjamin Drue Reus, Jelle Klaasen, or Patrick Geeraets

    Also, an observation from the order of merit rankings - only 7 players in the UK and 9 players in the EU have scored points on both days so far.

    And what a deciding leg too. Both were on 81 after 9 and but Klaasen broke the throw to win in 11 darts. Impressive stuff.

    I'd imagine he's safe. Usually last day has lots of drop outs.

    Im fairness to him his form really picked up last few months and he's carried it into Q School

    Glad to see Jelle Klaasen back on tour. I was always a fan of his as a dartist.

    EU: WDF world champion Andy Baetens goes from 0 points to an automatic Tour Card.

    Haupai Puha (9 points) and Jules van Dongen (8 points) are guaranteed OoM Tour Cards. Radek Szaganski (7 points, +35 LD) is guaranteed if he doesn't show up tomorrow.

    UK: Leighton Bennett 🆚 Thomas Cromwell for today's card.

    UK: Once dubbed the next Phil Taylor, Leighton Bennett finally gets on tour.

    No merit guarantees as the top of the table only has 7 points.

    Currently 6 points is a lock in both schools. That covers up to 6th place in the UK, and 9th place in the EU.

    9/10 UK merit cards secured. 10/13 EU merit cards secured.

    Still three players in both schools who have a card on merit who can win the day and move the needle down a space.

    UK Q-School is almost complete after the quarter-finals.

    • Automatic winners: Steve Lennon, Robert Grundy, Leighton Bennett.
    • Automatic or OoM winners: Matthew Dennant, Dom Taylor, Joshua Richardson.
    • OoM winners: William Borland, James Hurrell, George Killington, Danny Lauby, Rhys Griffin, Brett Claydon, Darren Beveridge.

    The semi-final between Richardson and current transfer spot Adam Hunt will determine the final card. If Hunt wins, he gets the card. Otherwise, Hunt needs to not lose by +2 or more, otherwise his leg difference drops below Darren Webster.
